Chapter 773: Chapter 773 – Inside the Imperial City
The dream had given Chen Heng a certain revelation. He had to take action regardless of what the final outcome was.
Chen Heng looked at the bright moon outside the window, this thought silently flashing through his mind.
The next day, he began to set off, preparing to return to the Violet Imperial City. The people in the territory showed different attitudes towards his decision to return.
Alice’s face showed joy.
“Your Highness, you finally understand!”
She stood there joyfully and said, “In the past six months, His Majesty has summoned you back to the Imperial City more than once, but you had rejected all of them.”
“Have you finally understood now?”
Alice represented the views of a large group of people in the territory. In the eyes of this group of people, Chen Heng was the favorite child of King Violet. After the disappearance of the first Prince Aili, he was the best candidate for the position of heir.
Not only was he loved by King Violet, but he was also smart. He had also developed various kinds of medicines. These medicines had been selling well in many kingdoms, and the wealth he had obtained was unimaginable.
He was not lacking in wealth, and the current king also liked him. If Chen Heng were willing to return to the Imperial City, he would be the best candidate for the successor position.
Unfortunately, for a while, Chen Heng was unwilling to respond to King Violet’s call and return to the Imperial City for some reason. But now, he had finally made up his mind. Had he thought it through?
Alice was excited, and various thoughts flashed through her mind at this moment. From Alice’s reaction, Chen Heng knew that no one would object to his return to the Imperial City.
These people didn’t understand that there was a whirlpool; even if they did, they couldn’t resist the temptation.
......
But this was also good. At least there would be less resistance. Chen Heng shook his head secretly, then turned around and left.
The next day, he embarked on his journey back to the Imperial City. From his territory to the Imperial City, the time needed was still to a certain extent.
However, this was a normal situation. Chen Heng did not bring the cumbersome and useless etiquette personnel. Instead, he directly brought Charlie and a few others forward. Naturally, the speed would be much faster.
Just like that, he arrived at the Imperial City in just three days. When he arrived at the imperial city, the surrounding scenes were also reflected in his eyes.
It was very prosperous and lively. Even though the bad news kept coming, the people of this city were still indulging in their enjoyment. No one felt the slightest sense of danger.
In their view, this city was the Imperial City of the Violet Empire, guarded by the Violet Royal Family.
In the past, no one had ever threatened this city, let alone taken it a step further. Naturally, this time was no exception. So what if the disaster in the outside world was fierce? In the end, it had nothing to do with them.
When the outside world frequently sent bad news, the atmosphere in this city became even more lively. Many noble families walked in the city, enjoying themselves.
This situation made Chen Heng and the others frown, feeling something was wrong.
After all, they had traveled all the way here. Although they did not go where the disasters occurred to hurry up, they could still see countless refugees circling.
Those refugees came from the places where the disasters occurred. Because of the disasters in their hometown, these people had to leave their homes and live in other places. However, as the capital, the city in front of them was not affected.
Chen Heng silently stood on the spot and observed the council. He took the lead and walked in. He crossed the long and narrow street and arrived outside the palace.
There, there were already people waiting for him. In front of him, a group of guards stood quietly. At first glance, they looked very dignified. They were all well-trained soldiers.
Among them, a young man was particularly eye-catching. That young man had a pair of silver eyes. He was handsome and looked somewhat similar to Chen Heng.
When he saw Chen Heng walking over, his face immediately revealed a decent smile.
“Welcome back, my elder brother.”
He faced forward and took the lead to greet Chen Heng.
“Long time no see, brother.”
Chen Heng rode his horse to the front and looked at the young man in front of him. He could not help but look surprised.
The young man in front of him was none other than his brother. He was also the second prince of the Violet Royal Family and another potential successor. However, compared to Jason in Chen Heng’s memory, the current Jason had changed significantly.
In the past, although Jason was a prince, due to Aili’s suppression and influence, he had always been very low-key. Usually, he was in a silent state. But now, in front of him...
Chen Heng looked at Jason in front of him. Under his gaze, the other party had a decent and confident smile on his face. His entire person looked much more confident, completely different from his taciturn appearance in the past.
From the looks of it, without Aili’s suppression, the other party had been living quite comfortably in the capital for the past half a year.
It was no wonder. With the first prince missing and Chen Heng himself not returning to the capital and almost giving up the position of the successor, he was the only choice. He would receive the attention of all sides. Naturally, he was completely different from the little transparent state he was in in the past.
“I know that you are coming back. I have asked someone to clean the palace for you in advance. You could just go in and live there.”
Jason rode the horse and walked with Chen Heng. He looked at him and said, “As for father, he will summon you in a while.
“You can make preparations in advance.”
“Is that so?”
Chen Heng smiled and said, “Thank you very much.”
“There’s no need for that.”
Jason also smiled. “After all, you’re my younger brother.”
The two of them walked forward, chatting and laughing along the way. It made many people who were filled with anticipation and wanted to see the conflict between brothers secretly disappointed.
From the surface, the two of them were completely friendly and harmonious. They were completely different from when Aili was still around. However, Chen Heng knew well that the situation was not as simple as it seemed.please visit f𝙧𝘦𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝘯o𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝐨𝙢.
Jason looked kind on the surface, but his heart was still full of vigilance and uneasiness. The other party did not show this, but Chen Heng could feel it.
After the Sun God bloodline was further awakened, he could feel the vague emotions in many people’s hearts. This was his new ability.
